T20 World Cups are the grandest stage for any team in the world to showcase their talents. Over the years, there have been seven T20 World Cups, with the first one taking place in 2007, and the latest one, the eighth one being underway in 2022 right now.
Nations from different parts of the world have participated in T20 World Cups. This year, the kits worn by team UAE and Namibia drew everyone’s attention. Similarly, there have been some unique kits in T20 WC history that were spotted in only one edition. Here’s a list of five such kits:

Scotland wore a kit that looked similar to Deccan Chargers’ kit in 2008. It was in T20 WC 2007, when Scotland were in the same group as India and Pakistan. As expected, the Scots were knocked out in the group stage itself.
2. Scotland, 2009

The Scots opted for a blue kit in the second edition of the mega event. They were in the same group as New Zealand and South Africa. Once again, the Scots could not make it past the group stage.
